Well I was told by the nurse who does the post office visit final wrap up at my doctor’s office that I needed a prescription. I had asked her if I did and she said yes and that they would send it to my pharmacy. However, I just attempted to look that up on the internet but couldn’t find a definitive answer, so it might not be the case. The supplies are not cheap, so the nurse might have been referring to whether insurance would cover the costs. In Texas you do have to have a prescription to get medical insurance to pay for certain supplies, but that might be an insurance thing rather than a state requirement, but Texas will always side on the side of Big Insurance, so if insurance wants a prescription, then they can get away with requiring it. Texas is notorious for requiring prescriptions for a lot of so-called medical devices that should not require them IMO. Again, because Big Insurance says “jump” and the politicians say “how high”.
